With the rework to Ninjabike Kneepads, they now carry an amazing synergy to run and gun close quarters style of play, with another method on top of adrenaline rush to keep intimidate up. What I was (unsuccessfully) testing was the interaction between the kneepads reload on vault/cover to cover movement with the talent Pumped Up. Currently, it does not work at all. Using an M870, firing all 5 rounds and then vaulting over something reloads the weapon as expected, but does not gain the pumped up stacks.

I’m guessing this is intentional, but it is also very unfortunate, and I wish it had some synergy between them. You’re already giving up the ability to reliably run a shield due to needing maneuverability to keep up reloads and bonus armor... getting that increased damage from pumped up would be an amazing compliment to the build overall.

Fair point - thanks for bringing this up. I'll try and look into it to see if it's intentional or something going awry.
